CLUB SPORTS
Club Sport exists to provide the Nicholls community with a variety of opportunities for personal growth and development. The programs offer undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity in extramural competition against other clubs, schools, colleges, and university from across the state and country. The opportunities provide student-focused growth and leadership in a student-driven environment.
While housed within campus recreation, club sports are registered student organizations, therefore students must comprise the majority of membership, and serve as club officers. For more information on how to create a club, visit the student organization page.
Nicholls Pickelball Club
We are more than a pickleball team—we are a community built on competition, connection, and constant improvement. Our mission is to grow the sport of pickleball on campus by creating an inclusive, competitive, and supportive environment for players of all skill levels. We strive to push each other to be better athletes, better teammates, and better leaders—on and off the court. Through hard work, sportsmanship, and a shared love for the game, we aim to represent our university with pride while fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to learn, compete, and have fun. Whether you’re here to chase wins, develop your skills, or find your people, this team is a place to belong. We play hard, support harder, and always show up for each other.

Colonel Esports
Colonel Esports is an organization dedicated to competitive gaming and the gaming community. We not only encourage those that would like to compete, but also those that would like to learn about the way an esports team runs, to reach out and participate in our club. We always have room for one more. Currently, we have two teams for our college call of duty league but are always looking for players and students who would love to learn leadership skills and assist with coaching new teams as we expand our horizons.
